Features:
» Put widgets into tabbed interface in sidebar.

In version 1.1 was introduced the use of scrollable tabs using the jQuery library and plugin jQuery Tools. This allows the plugin to be used in the sidebar of any width. The demonstration of the new version can be seen in my blog.

If you don't want to use the new functionality all you needs to do is the download of version 1.0 on the Plugin Directory of WordPress.

Version:
»1.1

Download:
» http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/sidebartabs/

Credits:
» The sidebarTabs uses a portion the code of the plugin postTabs of Leo Germani.

Recommendation:
» Use, if possible, an area other than the blog for the testing of functionality of the plugin.

Suggestions:
» Suggestions for improvement and corrections are welcome and can be made through the contact form Viche blog or comment on the page of the plugin.
